Global climate changes cause extreme temperatures and a significant reduction in crop
production, leading to food insecurity worldwide. Temperature extremes (including both heat …

Salt stress causes retarded plant growth and reduced crop yield. A complicated regulation
network to response to salt stress has been evolved in plants under high salinity conditions …

Olive tree (Olea europaea L.) is an important crop in the Mediterranean Basin where drought
and salinity are two of the main factors affecting plant productivity. Despite several studies …

Saline-alkali stress seriously restricts rice growth, development, and production in northern
China. The damage of alkaline stress on rice is much greater than that of salt due to ion …

Melatonin, a regulatory molecule, performs pleiotropic functions in plants, including
aluminum (Al) stress mitigation. Here, we conducted transcriptomic and physiological …

High-salinity stress considerably affects plant growth and crop yield. Thus, developing
techniques to enhance high-salinity stress tolerance in plants is important. In this study, we …

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a pleiotropic signaling molecule that plays a
crucial role in the regulation of various environmental stresses, including heat stress (HS). In …

Salt stress inhibits the production of all crop species, including rapeseed (Brassica napus
L.), the second most widely planted oil crop species. Although melatonin was confirmed to …

As one of the cash crops, cotton is facing the threat of abiotic stress during its growth and
development. It has been reported that melatonin is involved in plant defense against salt …

Salinity stress is one of the major threats to agricultural productivity across the globe.
Research in the past three decades, therefore, has focused on analyzing the effects of …
